Li You was eating in the wine shop, Zhou Qing and the others were scattered around secretly protecting, every time a guest came in, they would observe carefully, and the white tiger was also vigilant at all times.

The two men and one woman who came in looked very ordinary, the two men looked ordinary, and the woman had a sallow face and some brown pockmarks on her face, and the three of them were not eye-catching. They walked to a table by the window and sat down, two tables away from Li You and the others.

Seeing that there was nothing unusual, Baihu and the others quickly lost interest.

Li You sat diagonally facing the table of the new guests, and without turning his neck, he could see the movements of the three people clearly with the peripheral vision of his eyes. Those three people also did not attract Li You's attention.

The Tang Dynasty was an era of freedom of speech, and there were almost no taboos except that the emperor could not discuss casually. The news that Li You, the king of Qi, came to Dengzhou, is now the biggest hot topic in Dengzhou City, and the guests here are also talking about all kinds of gossip, and some hearsay news is hyped nonsense according to their own imagination. Some people are still very imaginative, and have made up some ridiculous wild histories.

His Royal Highness the King of Qi is two feet tall, with big shoulders and a round waist, eyes like cowbells, holding the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, he can kill 800 people with one knife, and he will defeat the Western Regions alone. What kind of literary and opera stars descended to earth, otherwise how could they write so many good poems. Some people say that he is a beautiful man, and he has married 48 wives at a young age, all of whom are as beautiful as flowers, and he needs eight beautiful women to serve every night.

There was also talk of piracy and the upcoming conquest of the Japanese slave country, and all kinds of news were also flying all over the sky, and many so-called well-informed people broke the news about the number of people in the Eastern Expeditionary Army, the source and the names of the generals, etc., and they were able to say that they were not far from ten, which made Li You and others secretly frightened.

After the formation of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, it was necessary to train troops in the Dengzhou area and raise grain and grass, and a large number of warships were assembled in the Dengzhou Naval Division. However, some people were able to tell the situation in the Eastern Expeditionary Army, which aroused the vigilance of Li You and others.

Li You felt the need to emphasize confidentiality. He was already full, and when he saw that Zhang Guigui and the others had almost eaten, he was ready to go back. He stood up, ready to go first, and then go home.

When the white tiger saw him stand up, he also stood up and accompanied him to the toilet.

It was July, and the sun was blazing and unusually strong. At this time, there are white clouds and dogs in the sky, and large clouds are speeding by, and the earth is sometimes gloomy, sometimes bright and dazzling.

Li You returned to the dining table and sat down again, but this time he sat in the place where the white tiger had just sit. Zhang Guigui said: "Li Gongzi, let's go." ”

Li You smiled: "Wait a minute, I still want to drink some soup before leaving." Then he ordered another pot of shrimp and clam seafood soup.

After about a stick of incense, Li You and the others finally finished eating and left.

Not far from the wine shop, Li You commanded a few words in Bai Hu's ear, and Bai Hu's eyes lit up and he nodded. Then, Li You and the others left, but Baihu stayed.

Governor's Palace.

As soon as he entered the lobby of the headquarters of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, Li You heard the laughter of the people in the guest room. Seeing Li You come in, Cheng Yanjin smiled and said, "Your Highness, there is really a kid like Xue Rengui, let me tell you......"

It turned out that after the establishment of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, although Cheng Biting Jin was supportive, those generals from Dengzhou, Qingzhou, Lizhou and Dongmu were still not convinced that the hairy boy Xue Rengui was the commander, and their words and deeds showed contempt.

Cheng Yanjin is a veteran in the army, and he knows that Xue Rengui must be allowed to establish his prestige, otherwise there may be ineffective command and incomplete orders on the battlefield in the future, which will kill people. So, he decided to arrange for Xue Rengui to compete with the generals.

The competition is divided into Wenbi and Wubi, Wenbi soldiers' books and battle strategies, and Wubi bows, sabers and guns.

Cheng Yanjin first arranged a martial arts competition, the one with the strongest fist in the army is the uncle, the bow, horse, sword and gun are not good, and no one cares about you when you talk to others about military books and war strategies. Cheng Yanjin understood Xue Rengui's ability, and in order to let him establish his prestige at one time, he simply gathered tens of thousands of people from the entire army to watch the battle together.

They first tried archery on a horse and horse, and Xue Rengui's magic shot convinced everyone. Then, in the test of knives and guns, Xue Rengui won one against four. At this time, all the officers and soldiers were impressed.

That's not all, Cheng Yanjin talked about Xue Rengui's achievements in Tuyuhun and the Western Regions, and the officers and soldiers admired him.

At this time, Wenbi was saved, and the four military envoys Liu Anjin, Shen Ming, Sun Yongsheng, and Xiang Donglei had nothing to say.

Li You is very fortunate that with the help of a veteran like Cheng Yanjin, he is really effective in controlling the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

In the evening, Baihu and Zhou Qing came back. Baihu said: "Lord Wang, you are really a god, how do you know that those people are from the Japanese slave country?" ”

Then Zhou Qing reported what happened, and the white tiger saw Zhou Qing who was on guard outside and asked him to follow the two men and one woman in person. Zhou Qing and the others did not enter the wine shop, so Baihu accompanied Zhou Qing and the others to wait at the door, and when they saw the two men and one woman coming out, they identified them. Zhou Qing and others secretly followed them.

Zhou Qing and others followed two men and one woman to a trading company owned by Silla people, and then went to the nearby Wuhou shop to learn about the situation. The city of Dengju was a small place, and the Wuhou knew the situation of the surrounding residents well, and they soon found the man who worked as a handyman in the Silla trading company, and provided information about the two men and one woman.

Zhou Qing said: "Those two men and one woman are from the Japanese slave country, and that woman is called Miss and looks very beautiful. He was also deeply impressed by the magic of the prince, and his words revealed admiration.

After listening to their words, Cheng Yanjin also felt interesting, and he also asked; "Your Highness, the minister is also curious, so you can talk about it."

The two men and one woman are Kumiko Takahashi, Ayumi Kawasaki and others. In order to grasp as much and accurate information as possible about the situation of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, they specially inquired about the news at the wine shop near the headquarters of the Eastern Expeditionary Army.

Kumiko Takahashi has an outstanding appearance, and the last time she was in a liquor shop near the Dengzhou Navy Military Port, she caught the doctor's attention. She accepted this lesson and applied makeup.

Li You didn't have any suspicions about the three of them at first, he was going to leave after going to the toilet. When he passed behind Kumiko Takahashi on the way back, the clouds in the sky happened to drift by, and the sunlight outside the window was strongly projected on Kumiko Takahashi and the others.

At this time, Kumiko Takahashi was eating with her head down, revealing a white jade-like neck under her collar, reflecting a dazzling light under the strong sunlight.
